CLEVELAND – Western Michigan football's Hayden Wolff has been named the Mid-American Conference Male Scholar Athlete of the Week after his efforts in WMU's 45-42 win over Ball State on Saturday.  

Wolff was nearly perfect throwing the come-from-behind win.. He finished 26-for-29 with an 89.7 completion percentage, 265 yards and three touchdown passes. Wolff's first TD pass of the game gave the Broncos a very early 14-0 lead. He then threw a 43-yard touchdown pass to open the third quarter, giving WMU a 28-21 lead. His third touchdown proved to be the game-winner, giving WMU a 45-35 lead in the eventual 45-42 win. He was named MAC Offensive Player of the Week for his performance.
